Google Drive already allows you to open different types of files with different 'chrome plugins'. It's all done. All you have to do now, is create plugins/apps which handle file types of your interest. Checkout this screenshot where 'AutoCAD WS' has been registered to open autocad drawings: <a href="http://i.imgur.com/Ddc6w.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i.imgur.com/Ddc6w.jpg</a> .
